The UK did a test broadcast back in the beginning of September, of video broadcasted in UHDTV resolutions, off the Astra 2B satellite. The picture quality is simply amazing. I can't wait until we all have 100" flatscreen TVs that have resolutions this high. This video broadcast consumed about 287MB per minute of video.
